8 Things That Are Non-Negotiables in Your Disney Parks Bag

Rain Protection

No one likes being stuck in the rain and having to buy the dreaded Mickey Mouse poncho (or uh, trashbag, which is really what it feels like). Come prepared with your own equipment, and you’ll be saving yourself money and time.

Grab our favorite Frogg Togg Rain Poncho.

This is our go-to! They fold up easily to fit in our backpacks and come in a variety of colors, so everyone in the family can have their own. It’s so easy to pull these out before the rain comes, and once it’s over, shake off the rain and put them away for next time.

You can also check out this Mini Umbrella.

Not a poncho person? We get it! This small umbrella folds up so you can store it in your backpack and also protects you from the brutal Florida sunshine. It’s lightweight as well.

Sunscreen

If there’s one thing you don’t want to skip on your packing list, it’s sunscreen! Even if you swear you never burn, don’t underestimate the Florida sun and how often you’ll be standing in direct sunlight.

We recommend the Clear Sunscreen Stick.

We think the stick is much easier to apply than a handful of goop, and this way, it doesn’t get your hands all greasy. It dries clear, and you can wear it over or under makeup as well for the ultimate coverage.

Hand Sanitizer

Worried about the germs at Disney World? We totally understand! That’s why we think you should grab a pack or two of hand sanitizer to keep yourself germ-free throughout your trip

We love this Touchland Hand Sanitizer.

It looks like Mickey Mouse, which is the cutest thing ever. It’s meant to smell like fresh watermelon, jasmine petals, and fuzzy peaches, and is made with alcohol, aloe vera, and radish root ferment filtrate to help kill bacteria, hydrate, and maintain moisture.

Beat the Heat

Florida can get HOT, like much hotter than you might have experienced. On top of that, it gets super humid, and if you’renot prepared, you’ll regret your decisions, so we have a few favorites that keep us going.

We always have this Mini Fan with us.

Don’t knock the size! It’s tiny but fierce. We love to pull this out when we’re waiting in line for rides or snacks, and even when we’re walking from area to area. It also doubles as a powerbank which is super helpful.

You can also try this Portable Neck Fan.

If you’re not into carrying things in your hand, this might be easier. You just slide it around your neck, turn it on, and you’re on your way to ultimate cooling time. It’s rechargeable with five different speeds, too.

Water Bottles

Do not go to Disney World without a water bottle. Please. Once again, Florida is hot, and you’ll want to keep your ice cold water nearby so you can cool down when you need to.

One of our favorites is the Stanley IceFlow Flip Straw.

The handle on this water bottle is so nice to carry and clip onto our backpacks, and the colors are so pretty and soft. There’s a straw on top that you can flip back to sip and then close it up when you’re finished, so it doesn’t leak.

We’ll always boast about our Owalas, too.

This is our Disney Princess Rapunzel Owala, but there are other colors and princesses, too. It’s stainless steel to keep our water cool, and it lets us tip it back and guzzle or sip it through a straw. It also opens with a button, so you don’t have to dirty your straw with your fingers.
